Brass plays a sad tune Over the motors of the pontoon. I was lost; now I'm found Rescued from The dog pound Mama! Mama! Go get a doctor! Send forty days of rain And a kettle of copper. Ride that train! Hurry uptown! That ol' blue norther's pourin' At the dog pound Well, it's hard to be humble In this land by the sea But it's so easy here to stumble, Ain't it hard livin' free? Hear that train? How sweet the sound... That Burlington's a-blowin' At the dog pound Rally! Rally! Creepin' up the alley! Rope that heifer! No slack on the dally! Make her now become a cow And milk the puppies At the dog pound And with the storm well on its way, Back and forth the breakers sway; Fools rush in, makin' their rounds, But the muzzle has 'em puzzled At the dog pound

Dog Pound
Brass plays a sad tune Over the motors of the pontoon. I was lost; now I'm found Rescued from The dog pound Mama! Mama! Go get a doctor! Send forty days of rain And a kettle of copper. Ride that train! Hurry uptown! That ol' blue norther's pourin' At the dog pound Well, it's hard to be humble In this land by the sea But it's so easy here to stumble, Ain't it hard livin' free? Hear that train? How sweet the sound... That Burlington's a-blowin' At the dog pound Rally! Rally! Creepin' up the alley! Rope that heifer! No slack on the dally! Make her now become a cow And milk the puppies At the dog pound And with the storm well on its way, Back and forth the breakers sway; Fools rush in, makin' their rounds, But the muzzle has 'em puzzled At the dog pound
